Quotes from Stargate: SG-1
Samantha Carter (Amanda Tapping)
Season One
O'Neill: Another scientist? General, please.
Carter: Theoretical astrophysicist.
O'Neill: Which means?
General Hammond: Which means she's smarter than you are, Colonel. Especially in matters related to the Stargate.
Carter: Colonel, I was studying the gate technology for two years before Daniel Jackson made it work and before you both went through. I should have gone through then.
O'Neill: This has nothing to do with you being a woman. I like women. I've just got a little problem with scientists.
Carter: Colonel, I logged over a hundred hours in enemy airspace during the Gulf War. Is that tough enough for you? Or do we have to arm wrestle.
Carter: You know you really will like me when you get to know me.
O'Neill: Oh, I adore you already Captain.
Carter: It took us 15 years and three super computers to MacGuyver a system for the gate on Earth.
General Hammond: Captain Carter, you're confident that the stargate will take us where we want to go with this new information?
Carter: Well they're feeding the revised coordinates into the targeting computer right now. It'll take time to calculate but it should spit out two to three destinations a month.
General Hammond: People, let's not fool ourselves here. This thing is both vast and dangerous and we are so far over our heads we can barely see daylight. We would all be much better off if the stargate had been left in the ground.
Carter: With respect sir, we can't bury our heads in the sand. I mean think of how much we could learn. Think of what we could bring back.
General Hammond: What you could bring back is precisely what I'm afraid of, Captain.
Mughal: If you travel this country you must learn our ways.
Carter: I'm thinkin' we should just go back while we're ahead.
Carter: Daniel, find me an anthropologist that dresses like this and I will eat this headdress.
O'Neill: Love what they've done with the place.
Carter: I was going to do my livingroom like this but it didn't go with my other stuff.
Jackson: Looks Minoan.
Jackson: What a mess.
Teal'c: This temple was destroyed long ago.
O'Neill: Let's get a move on before we meet somebody who remember why.
Mughal: If you travel this country you must learn our ways.
Carter: I'm thinkin' we should just go back while we're ahead.
Carter: Daniel, find me an anthropologist that dresses like this and I will eat this headdress.
Jackson: How is it that you always come up with the worst case scenario?
O'Neill: I practice.
Mughal: All Shavadai, be free! (the women remove their veils) It is how you will be remembered, Carter.
Carter: So you think this new anesthesia will be a miracle drug on Earth?
Jackson: Well if it is I bet somebody else will
get the credit. We can never say where it came from.
O'Neill: Damn! Guess I'm going to have to cancel that Oprah interview.
Teal'c: What is an "oprah"?
About the lack of light on P3X-797
Jackson: This is crazy. We don't know what could be there waiting for us when we come through.
Makepeace: Don't you worry, boys. That's why the SG-3 Marines are coming with. You can count on us to watch your backsides.
Jackson: Actually it's more my front side I was worried about.
O'Neill: Love what they've done with the place.
Carter: I was going to do my livingroom like this but it didn't go with my other stuff.
Jackson: Looks Minoan.
Jackson: Wow. What happened to you?
O'Neill: Oh I got in a little wrestling match with Carter.
Jackson: Why?
O'Neill: I guess she's got whatever Johnson got. I had to drag her off to the infirmary.
Jackson: What did she start a fight with you like Johnson did with Teal'c?
O'Neill: No, uh, she tried to seduce me.
Jackson: Oh. pause. You poor man.
O'Neill: Carter, I want you to take Connor back through the Stargate, report to General Hammond what's happened here.
Carter: No, sir.
O'Neill: "No, sir"?
Carter: If you're going after Captain Hanson
I should go with you. I can get to him.
O'Neill: Look, Captain, either we're bringing him back to face a court martial or not. I think we both know what the "not" means.
Carter: I know him, Colonel.
O'Neill: Yeah that would be the problem, wouldn't it?
Jackson: They were probably just instructed to just take Connor, send us a message that Hanson's in control.
Carter: Hm. Sounds familiar.
Jackson: Which part?
Carter: He likes control.
Jackson: Well what did you see in him?
Carter: I don't know. I guess I've always had a soft spot for the lunatic fringe.
Jackson: Um. Do things feel a little... off here?
Carter: Are you crazy? It's a paradise.
Jackson: Yeah, sure, have an apple. What could happen?
Carter: You know, goodbyes really suck.
Season Two
Jackson: Ask me anything. Something only Daniel would know.
Carter: Okay. Who's Cassandra?
Jackson: She's a twelve-year-old girl we found abandoned on P8X-987.
O'Neill: P8X— ?
Carter: 987.
O'Neill: Alright, lucky guess.
Carter: He's not Goa'uld or Jaffa. I don't sense any Naqueda. As far as I can tell he's clean.
O'Neill: What's he doing here?
Charlie (Jeff Gulka): I am here to warn you.
Carter: Dad, we have a little bit of a situation and we may need Selmak's help.
Jacob (Carmen Argenziano): Selmak Selmak Selmak. I thought maybe you just wanted to see your old man.
Jackson: We're the first people in human history to go back in time... well, for all we know. If we could figure out how to do this again, just think of what we could do. We could actually visit Babylon. We could, we could— We could see the Great Wall of China being built.
Teal'c: Or prevent regrettable events from your history from ever occurring.
Carter: No. That's exactly what we can't do.
O'Neill: Why not?
Carter: Because of the Grandfather Paradox. If you went back fifty years and murdered your own grandfather, your own father would never have been born.
Jackson: So you're saying that if we change our own past...
Carter: We could change our world in ways we can't possibly imagine. We might even cease to exist. Along with everything and everyone we know.
O'Neill: Listen, I don't know where we're headed but they'll probably try to split us up. So we're not going to have much time to—
Carter: Escape and hopefully live out the rest of our lives without affecting history.
O'Neill: Or?
Carter: I can't think of an "or" at the moment, sir.
Jackson: No "or"?
O'Neill: There's an "or."
Jackson: There's an "or"?
Carter: Sir, you can't just will something to happen because you want it to be a certain way.
O'Neill: Captain, where there's a will there's an "or."
Carter: Then you've been waiting for this to happen.
Hammond: Ever since we met. I almost didn't let you go.
Carter: But if you didn't, you would have changed your own history.
Season Three
Selmak: Your father has an unresolved issue on this planet and frankly it's beginning to irritate me.
Carter: Mark.
Selmak: Yes. Your father is a proud man. He refuses to seek out your brother and mend their relationship.
Carter: Yeah. Well, Mark isn't exactly rushing into my father's arms either. Even when we thought Dad was going to die he didn't return my call.
Selmak: It hurt your father deeply that his son did not come to his deathbed. Now why would it hurt? As far as I was concerned the kid wasn't my son anymore. It didn't hurt a bit.
Hammond: It is with great pleasure that I bestow upon you the responsibilities, the respect, and the rank of Major.
Carter: Thank you, sir.
O'Neill: Well done. Major.
Carter about the System Lords: I just hate having them here.
O'Neill: Major. I hate having them anywhere.
Jackson: Hathor had the ability to appear and disappear.
O'Neill: Okay, she's dead. {silence} Right? Please, tell me she's dead.
Carter: Uh, yeah.
Jackson: Sam, you've got four of those things in you.
Carter: I know that, but I feel fine.
O'Neill: You're not seeing or hearing any of this stuff?
Carter: No. Sir, I feel completely normal. Somehow I must be immune.
O'Neill: You do know what fun is, don't you? Okay. Ah. Fun is what you do to make yourself happy. Like music games. It's whatever you do when you're not learning to be a rocket scientist.
Merrin: I am here to teach Major Carter about the reactor.
Carter: Sounds like fun to me.
Carter: Draw me your reactor core. Give me an idea of what it looks like.
Merrin: I don't draw.
Carter: You don't draw? Everyone draws.
Merrin: No. It is not something I am required to do. I have never had to draw before.
Carter: Oh. Well, it's pretty easy.
Aris Boch: Captain! You must have some medical training.
Carter: Actually, I'm a Major now.
Aris Boch: Oh. Well how very important. I'll inform the galaxy.
Aris Boch: I give to the Goa'uld what they want and they give back to me what I want in return.
Carter: How do you keep from getting killed?
Aris Boch: Takes talents.
O'Neill: So. How do you keep from getting killed?
Aris Boch: Poison. That's very un-Goa'uld-like. Why would he do that?
Carter: To save the lives of other Tok'ra.
Aris Boch: Since when does a Goa'uld care about another Goa'uld?
Carter: I told you, the Tok'ra are not the same.
Carter: We were on P8X-873. We were freeing the Abydonians whom the Goa'uld had taken as slaves.
O'Neill: Kasuf sent for us.
Jackson: Shar'e was there.
Carter: Yeah.
O'Neill: She's dead, Daniel. I'm sorry.
Carter: Well, still don't detect anything out of the ordinary, sir. Neither did the MALP. I think we're okay.
O'Neill: The MALP is worthless. You I'll trust.
Carter: I've been studying Linea's journals. Apparently she found a link between dargol—that's a chemical pesticide the Vyans used—and longevity.
O'Neill: What's a bug spray have to do with longevity?
Carter: Well it seems it was having the effect of slowing the aging process. Not in an extreme way, but certainly significant enough.
O'Neill: Lucky bugs.
Carter: Yes and no. They stopped using it over twenty years ago. It was adversely affecting their fertility rate.
O'Neill: So no kids.
Carter: Right.
Carter: What if there really was a laboratory accident. Some massive chain reaction of enhanced Dargol gas that caught even Linea by surprise? The entire population becomes young again overnight. You realize of course the implication.
O'Neill: No.
Carter: Their elders aren't missing, sir. They are the elders.
Carter: I think we have to at least face the possibility: Ke'ra is Linea.
Gate Tech: Receiving GDO transmission. It's the Tok'ra, sir.
O'Neill: Open the iris. {to Sam} Maybe it's dad.
Carter: Maybe.
Carter: It's my father.
Martouf (J.R. Bourne): I'm afraid he's been captured by Sokar.
Carter: Oh my god.
Martouf: As far as we know, he is still alive.
Carter: As far as you know?
Martouf: You are familiar with the way Sokar has assumed the persona of the entity on Earth known as the Devil?
O'Neill: Yeah. Bit pretentious, don't you think?
Martouf: You must understand when I say that, if Selmak is still alive, he has been sent to Hell.
O'Neill: As in?
Martouf: A place of eternal suffering and damnation, from which there is no return.
O'Neill: So we're talking about a rescue mission here?
Martouf: Unfortunately to our knowledge, no one has ever escaped Ne'tu.
O'Neill: Oh.
Martouf: No one except for Jolinar.
Carter: Oh.
Jacob: Am I dreaming?
Carter: No. No, we're real.
Jacob: Are you crazy?
O'Neill: Apparently.
Martouf: I knew it was you.
Carter: You shouldn't have done it, Martouf.
Martouf: I couldn't watch him kill you, Samantha.
Carter realizing: You lied.
Carter: This is Major Samantha Carter. We have a foothold situation.
Maybourne (Tom McBeath): Major Carter? Where are you?
Carter: I can't tell you that, sir.
Maybourne: Major, you're way outside your chain of command.
Carter: I have reason to believe that may be compromised, sir.
Maybourne: Understood.
Maybourne: So. You came to the one person you don't trust.
Carter: I don't know how far up the chain of command the infiltration goes. It may well be contained within the SGC, but if General Hammond was compromised—
Maybourne: He sounded fine to me on the phone.
Carter: What?
Maybourne: He called me, Major. Calm down. He's concerned for you, that's all.
Carter: I told you we had a foothold situation.
Maybourne: Major, a chemical spill causing paranoid delusion is infinitely more plausible to me than aliens taking over the SGC.
Carter: My god. You don't think I can tell the difference between the two? What was I thinking—
O'Neill: Oh hi, Carter.
Carter: Maybourne you are an idiot every day of the week. Why couldn't you have just taken one day off?
O'Neill: Maybourne? How'd he get—?
Carter: I called him.
O'Neill: Willingly?
Carter: How did you two get free?
Davis: We just woke up.
Carter: It must have happened when I killed you.
O'Neill: I'm sorry?
Maybourne: What happened?
Carter: They self-destructed.
Teal'c: Their destruction appears to be complete.
Carter: That's a lot of damage.
O'Neill: Coat of paint. Little touch-up. It'll be fine.
Carter: I thought the Nox were pacificists.
Lya: I only hid the weapon. I did not fire it.
Carter: Ah. Pretty fine line you didn't cross.
Lya: Yes it is.
Carter: General, we just left. We went through the Gate and we came back... here.
Hammond: Major you've been gone over fifteen hours.
O'Neill: Carter?
Carter: The technology implanted in our brains, sir. We're looking at some sort of visual communication interface. Controlled hallucination.
O'Neill: So... I... What?
Urgo: He gets confused. By the way, who is Mary Steenburgen?
Carter: I don't have time to play, Urgo. I don't care if I'm "it".
Carter: I was just talking to Urgo, sir.
Hammond: I see.
Carter: Oh... I wish you did.
Fraiser: You working through the night again?
Carter: Yeah. A lot of work to do.
Fraiser: Look Sam, there's no doubt you are going to solve this, but you have to accept the fact that it's going to take time.
Carter: Yeah, well if I think that way it could take months.
Fraiser: Daniel says the Tollan could have a ship in the vicinity of Edora sometime early next year.
Carter: He shouldn't have to wait that long.
Fraiser: You miss him.
Carter: Yeah.
Fraiser: Is this a problem?
Carter: No. No, of course not.
Fraiser: Okay.
Carter: Is there anything I can do?
O'Neill: About?
Carter: Well sir, with respect, you aren't exactly acting like yourself.
O'Neill: No Carter. I haven't been acting like myself since I met you. Now I'm acting like myself.
Hammond: Major Carter has an exemplary record on the team, as recognized by her recent promotion to Major. But Major is a far cry from Colonel.
Carter: I understand, General.
Jackson: I'm sorry, I don't. What difference does it make what title she has? The point is—
Carter: It's all right, Daniel. Really.
Makepeace: I'm proud to join you folks. I hope you will learn to trust my command as much as you did Colonel O'Neill's.
Carter: I'm sure we will, sir.
Jackson: I never really trusted Jack's command, but... I'm open.
Season Six
Jonas Quinn (Corin Nemec): Hey, Major? How do I know what color to wear?
Carter: We call each other every morning.
Carter: Sir, the X-301 was a modified glider. Now while many of the 302's systems were retro-engineered from Goa'uld technology, it is entirely human-built.
O'Neill: So was the Titanic.
Carter: Jonas, I understand why you want to join SG-1. And I'm sorry, but, I just don't see it happening.
McKay: Still sexy as ever, I see.
Carter: What are you doing here?
McKay: Well there's no point in building Naquada reactors for Russia if there isn't going to be a Russia, is there.
Carter: Inertial dampeners.
O'Neill: Cool... and check.
Carter: Engines.
O'Neill: All check. Phasers?
Carter: Sorry, Sir.
O'Neill: I'm going to go eat some cake.
Carter: I think I'll join you.
Carter: You're creepin' me out, McKay.
Carter: What'cha thinkin'?
McKay: Besides the fact that these guys are morons? she laughs. What do you think the little alien guy's doing down there?
Jonas: You know, it's the stupidest thing, but it's been bugging me since I got here.
Carter: What's that?
Jonas: We're inside a mountain. The gate obviously can't fit through any of these doors.
Carter: So how did we get it in here.
Jonas: Yeah.
Carter: Ceiling retracts. Above it is a shaft that leads to the surface and inside is a crane mechanism that hoisted the gate down.
Jonas: Interesting.
Carter: Yeah.
Jonas: Does it go up?
Carter: Sir. You do realize that if this works we won't have a Stargate anymore.
Hammond: It did occur to me.
Carter: They're working on lightening the 302 but that's why you're going alone. Believe it or not every pound counts.
O'Neill: Shouldn't have had that cake.
McKay: Well. Uh... let me know if I can help.
Carter: I will. Thanks. Carter kisses McKay on the cheek.
McKay: That means you don't hate me.
Carter: Maybe. Too bad for you.
McKay: Why?
Carter: I was more attracted to you when I did.
Richard Fleming: I know what happened to you. I know about Adrian Conrad.
Carter: Who are you?
Richard Fleming: They never shut the project down, Major. And now it's out of control.
Carter: What project?
Richard Fleming: You have to protect me. They know that I—
Carter: You knew who Adrian Conrad was, didn't you?
Jonas Quinn (Corin Nemec): Well I memorized all your mission reports. I just don't want people around here to start thinking I'm “strange”.
Carter: People don't think you're strange.
Jonas: What about Colonel O'Neill?
Carter: Let's get some lunch.
Carter: I'd like to see his lab if I may.
Sheriff Knox: There was a fire last night at Immunitech. The place was gutted.
Carter: Nice lunch.
Jonas: I'm really starting to enjoy this, ah, traditional American food.
Carter: We have another tradition. It's called hardened arteries.
Carter: What did happen at the bar?
Teal'c: We were met with hostility.
Carter: You didn't say anything weird, did you?
Jonas: Why are you looking at me?
Jonas: You have got to teach me how to do that.
Carter: Wormhole theory, motorcycle riding, lockpicking.
Jonas: Not necessarily in that order.
Sheriff Knox: What about this one?
Carter: He's an alien. The humans don't really trust him. {Jonas looks a little surprised.} We'll have to kill him.
Agent Singer: The humans have no idea what's going on here.
Carter: Oh.... I wouldn't exactly say that. {she zats them.} You guys aren't nearly as smart as you think you are.
Jonas: So when we were in the Sheriff's office, you were in complete control?
Carter: That's right.
Jonas: And you felt it absolutely necessary to shoot me.
Carter: Had to make it look good. {Jonas doesn't seem convinced.} Let's get some lunch.
Malek: This is the base of the Tau'ri. Why are there Jaffa?
Carter: Rebel warriors.
Malek: Jaffa who have turned against the Goa'uld. I did not realize their ranks had grown to such a number.
Carter: Hundreds more are operating as a fifth column among the Goa'uld.
O'Neill: Just like you.
Carter: Many of these Jaffa had to evacuate their rebel base a few months ago.
Malek: I see.
O'Neill: Is that going to be a problem?
Malek: Not for us.
O'Neill: Good.
O'Neill: Oo. Anybody else feel that?
Carter: The tingling sensation is caused by the energy field. It's not causing any physical damage, so there's nothing to worry about, sir.
O'Neill: No I like it. It's good.
Commander Tagar: From our study of the ancient temple, we have been able to deduce the Stargate was an interplanetary transportation device.
But we haven't determined how to make a connection with the many worlds described in the writings in the temple.
Carter: It took us awhile to get the hang of it too.
O'Neill: Oh come on, Carter, face it. With all their high morals and fancy preaching about coexisting with humans, we are just a nice place to live.
Carter: I don't think that we would just lie outright and doom thousands of innocent people.
O'Neill: The Tok'ra laying there on that table just did.
Dollen: Egeria has awakened.
Carter: To tell you the truth, sir, I didn't know what to say. She caught me completely off-guard.
Hammond: You did the right thing, Major. Our official policy is to deny everything.
Carter: Unfortunately in this case I don't think it's going to be enough.
Al Martell: You're saying little green men helped you build this?
Carter: Actually, they're grey.
Jonas: Fairbanks?
Carter: Better than Roswell.
O'Neill: Okay. Let's go home.
Carter: Well, sir, it's possible that when the hyper-drive was brought online no one fully accounted for the instability of the naquadria.
O'Neill: Who does?
Carter: Well what I'm saying is, if I don't know where we are, I can't plot a course for home.
Carter: Sir, based on the amount of time we spent in hyperspace, I'd estimate we're at least twelve hundred light years from Earth.
O'Neill: How does that help us?
Carter: Ah, it doesn't.
Jonas: You instructed every Replicator out there to come to you.
O'Neill: I have a theory why you lost the war.
Thor: The command was only given once the trap was set.
Jonas: What was the trap?
Thor: A time-dilation device, generating a field radius of point one-six light years.
Carter: Wow. That's some trap.
O'Neill: They didn't go for it.
Carter: They didn't approve the mission?
O'Neill: No, they did that. Once they knew the stakes and the whole "fate of the Universe" stuff. Both the president and Hammond realized we had no choice. He sends good luck, God speed, and all those things he says when he thinks we're going to die.
Carter: So what didn't they go for?
O'Neill: The name I suggested.
Carter: For the ship?
O'Neill: Yeah.
Carter: Yeah. Sir, we can't call it the Enterprise.
O'Neill: Why not?
Carter: The code name for the project is Prometheus. What's wrong with that?
O'Neill: It's a Greek tragedy. Who wants that?
Carter: Okay. The X-303 it is then.
Hammond: I take it that's the artifact you mean. What is it?
Carter: Actually we're not sure.
O'Neill: I'd say it's some kind of bug zapper, General.
Carter: All I know is it's emitting energy.
O'Neill: You could come with.
Carter: Sir?
O'Neill: Fishing, Carter. I'm going fishing.
Carter: You know I'm planning on studying the artifact.
O'Neill: Yes. It's always something, isn't it.
Carter: Oh come on, sir. We both know the only you asked is because you knew I had something else to do.
O'Neill: No, really, I think you should come. Fish. Fish some more....
Carter: How are you doing?
Jonas: Oh, well the possibility of my being insane has interfered with my ability to relax.
Carter: Just what we need: a conspiracy theorist.
Jonas: Who happens to be right about there being a conspiracy.
Carter: It's a fake. All the mimic devices were switched.
O'Neill: Someone duplicated duplicators?
Agent Malcolm Barrett: What exactly are you implying here, Major? That the N.I.D. had a hand in the assassination of a U.S. senator?
Carter: Very few organizations have the resources to pull off something like this.
Agent Barrett: And the man accused of the crime happens to be one of them.
Carter: The SGC is not behind this.
Carter: What are we doing out here, Agent Barrett?
Agent Barrett: My office is bugged. It's standard procedure to record all conversations that take place at N.I.D. Headquarters. What I'm about to tell you, Major, nobody else can know. Especially my superiors.
Carter: What are you talking about?
Agent Barrett: There's a cancer at the N.I.D. A shadow organization that operates outside the law. It's time they were exposed for who they really are.
Carter: I agree.
Agent Barrett: The Prometheus incident, that was the last straw. After that I was called to the White House for an assignment.
Carter: What does this have to do with Colonel O'Neill?
Agent Barrett: Senator Kinsey was working for me. He was about to give me enough evidence to bring down the entire leadership of the shadow group.
Carter: How did you convince him to do that?
Agent Barrett: Let's just say I know about a few of the skeletons in the Senator’s closet. And it is an election year.
Carter: You blackmailed him.
Agent Barrett: I'll do whatever it takes to bring these people down, Major.
Corso: You're an officer in your homeworld's military, you're a scientist, an explorer, and apparently you're a pretty fair mechanic.
Carter: And I make a mean souffle.
Quinn: Well, that, and I've always been suspicious of a girl who kisses on the first date.
O'Neill: Teal'c without Junior... That's a concept.
Carter: There's no redundancy for that particular system.
O'Neill: So you're saying there's no redundancy?
Carter: If it comes right down to it, we can detonate it right here. What's our position?
Jackson: Well, personally, I'm against it. But if you want to know where the ship is, we're about five meters above the surface at the bottom of the crater.
Carter: Our goal is to take out Anubis' new super weapon. It's what gives him a clear advantage over the rest of the Goa'uld mother ships. Now, we've received word from Teal'c that Yu has pledged to bring the full force of the remaining system lords' fleet down on Anubis once we've succeeded.
O'Neill: Okay. Everyone who thinks this is absolutely an insane idea, raise your hand. Come on, be honest.
Everyone, including Carter, eventually raise their hand
Jackson: Okay, well... There's no easy way to tell you this so... Sam's just gonna come right out and say it.
Sam gives him a look.
Carter: Well, sir... as you know, the Asgard depend on cloning technology...
Young O'Neill: Oh, for cryin' out loud...
Teal'c: You have been cloned, O'Neill.
Carter: Let's not touch anything yet. I'm kinda fond of this era.
Carter: Just because my reproductive organs are on the outside instead of the inside... God! That's horrible! Who would say that?!?
Carter: What do you think they're going to do? Ask us to join an elite team of intergalactic space heroes? Look at us. I think the only reason they showed us the tape is because we're on it.
Jackson: Exactly.
Carter: Oh.
Carter talking about Daniel: SG-11 insisted he seemed perfectly normal. Did you notice anything peculiar about him, sir?
Jack: I thought it odd that he was shooting up the Gateroom.
Mitchell: This is great. We got the band back together!
Carter about Vala: So what's with the extra back-up singer?
Mitchell: So you're saying that somewhere, in an alternate universe, I got to second base with Amy Vanderberg?
Carter: Theoretically, yes.
Mitchell: Boggles the mind, don't it!
Carter: As we discussed the situation we realized we could pinpoint the source of the phenomenon to a precise window. Specifically the interim journey between the two gates.
Mitchell: Did she just say "we"?
Carter: Pardon me?
Jackson: She said "we". You said "we"?
Carter: Ah, me and... myself, I suppose. The other Samantha Carter.
Mitchell: Right. Finally someone who can keep up with you, huh?
Carter: Yep.
Mitchell on Thor: You know, I've read mission reports on the Asgard, they're not what I was expecting.
Carter: What were you expecting?
Mitchell: I don't know... pants, for one.
Mitchell: And I ask this not one hundred percent sure I want to know the answer. But whose baby is it?
Vala: That's the thing. I don't know.
Carter: As in... ?
Vala: I swear. I did... none of the necessary things. Between my arrival in the Ori galaxy and my wedding night—which was definitely after I knew for sure—there is no way, humanly possible that I know of, that I could have gotten pregnant.
Carter hanging out in open space: I don't know what you can see from your vantage point or what your sensors are picking up, but from out here that mothership is pretty badly damaged. I would be surprised if they were weapons capable.
Emerson: Thanks Sam.
Mitchell: They haven't fired yet.
Carter: If you're thinking what I think you're thinking, it won't work.
Mitchell: Hang on, Sam. We're coming to get you.
Carter: Aw boy.
Carter: A member of this facility gets kidnapped unchallenged. It's no wonder he doesn't think we can protect him.
Jackson: But we can protect him.
Carter: Yeah, by locking him away for the rest of his life.
Mitchell: What can you say, that's the downside working for super villains.
Mitchell: What?
Carter: Nothing. I just find it funny how you're always losing your pants.
Vala: What's this?
Landry: Let's just call it a Welcome Back present.
Vala: These are—
Landry: Team badges. You're now officially a member of SG-1.
Carter: Congratulations. You earned it.
Carter: It's not designed to be shut off. It activates automatically and stays on.
Bad Guy: Then remove it.
Emerson: Don't help him, Colonel. That's an order. guard shoots and kills Emerson
Bad Guy: I believe that now makes you ranking officer on the ship, Colonel Carter. I suggest that you get to work.
I'm gonna miss Emerson...
Carter: There's a circuitous path of real timewinding through the temporal field.
Mitchell: It's a maze? It's a maze.
Carter: You've had the alien database for months. Why did it take you so long to get here?
Ba'al: I can't think clearly on an empty stomach.
Adria: Taking your life would be a waste of my time.
Ba'al: Which I suppose would be put to better use complaining.
Carter: Ugh. Geez, why don't you two just get a room.
Carter: In the meantime, let's see if there's a way out of here.
Ba'al: Let us know what you find. Teal'c grabs him. Or I could come too.
Ba'al: I know where you come from you're considered relatively intelligent, but by galactic standards that's not really saying much. Wouldn't you agree? Carter punches him.
Carter: You know, if you're not going to help you're really not much use to us, and if you're not much use to us then there's really no point in keeping you alive any longer. Wouldn't you agree?
Ba'al: I'd, ah, be delighted to help.
Carter: Great to hear.
Vala: So where are the boys tonight?
Carter: Cameron has a date, Daniel is exhausted. And Teal'c got tickets to some show...
Carter: She's using you, Vala.
Vala: No. I would know.
Mitchell: Well you didn't know before. Did you?
Vala: So no IOA... No television program about dancing with supposed celebrities?
Jackson: Actually that part was real.
Vala: How very disturbing.
Jackson: Mm hm.
Carter: Yeah.
Unending
Carter: Why do you do it? Knowing everything you learn is going to die with you?
Jackson: I know you think I'm crazy... Besides, you haven't given up.
Carter: Yes I have.
Mitchell: When I said that I wanted to get the team back together—work with you guys, learn from ya—I did not mean the next 50 years.
Carter: You said that yesterday.
